gold and u.s. debt ceiling that would also betray what ben bernanke the head of the federal reserve bank the central bank in america said oh that holding gold is just a tradition there's no reason for us we might as well be hyperinflationary chickens we know this is after it has been stripped of its currency delusions there is trying to figure it all all out. well first you know. a currency starts to collapse through slowly through inflation you see prices rising every month but when it's a hyper inflationary collapse that's a political event people have lost complete faith in the currency so it's all about perception right so this takes us to the next headline s e c suze the one reading for not on wall street's take this is on bloomberg dot com it's from william d. cohen and he says the securities and exchange commission it seems has finally lost

its mind in april motivated by what i consider pure maliciousness the f.c.c. initiated a cease and desist administrative proceeding it deemed necessary for the protection of investors and the general public interest against jones rating agencies and its principal owner sean egan why max why did they yes because remember they downgraded us to you know they talk about the aaa rated list and for that reason unlike fitch unlike moody's unlike s. and p. that are on the take either directly they get money for ratings or they just get under the counter money for ratings. independent they downgraded u.s. debt as any sane person would do so now they're being attacked the trouble started from jones on july sixteenth two thousand and eleven when you can jones first downgrade the u.s. sovereign debt by one notch to double a plus from aaa two days later how do you see wrote to them and seeking information about why they downgraded u.s.

debt remember they're saying they're protecting investors in a way that they are protecting that chinese investor who owns a lot of the u.s. debt we're talking one creditor the chinese people who are very upset that the value of their dollars are actually worthless look i have expressed to the people in greece and the people in ireland and the people in egypt create your own by. rating agencies and downgrade us to work should be downgraded to triple hooks triple c. it's worthless job you can do this twenty minutes to cost of starting a rating agency is what it is a post office box and one certain analyst from mit a caution fifty thousand dollars a year that's it well in fact china has a rating agency called i think it's day gone and they downgraded u.s. debt long before egan jones and company so they were i think it's more about the u.s. if you're inside the empire you can't you can't downgrade any of those little people with their hyper inflationary chicken bond markets can't go on is going to dig all

of them. because most of the empire you know pretty soon timothy geithner is going to show up and peeking with like three tons of opium and that we're. going to open opium again maybe that'll but even jones wasn't intimidated so they downgraded u.s. debt further april of this year and that happened on april fifth on april nineteenth leaks started emanating from the f.c.c. that they had voted to start an administrative law proceeding against the firm and april twenty fourth they filed it now even jones the story of them is that they are privately held company with about twenty employees and they started in one thousand nine hundred five and it is the only one of the nine nationally recognized rating agencies in america that gets paid by investors instead of by the issuers of securities so that's important to realize in the face of this financial collapse that was caused by the likes of bear stearns hiring rating agencies to bless their

junk bonds essentially they're toxic collect collateralized debt obligations a mortgage backed securities with the aaa rating they paid these rating agencies to do this and even william cohen here in the bloomberg article notes that you know e-mails emerged saying that from one of these top rating agencies that are not the subject of an investigation by the f.c.c. that. you know they would rate anything even if it were by a cow if they were paying it cowpuncher get a aaa rating and use as collateral to finance oh i don't know takeover of greek assets but look this is the insanity you're talking about that we've reached the point of no return i read the telegraph here in the u.k. that the leisure industry is suing the weather forecasters for coming up with a pessimistic forecast predicting rain because they say it cuts into the leisure industry so if you are a weather man and you are on television and you say well we expect rain over the weekend you're subject to a lawsuit because

a black clouds of rain don't exist in our leisure world where it's all sunny in pink rainbows and sunshine coming out of barack obama spent trying there's nothing wrong that could ever before all us it's all just play related and we're all over cents on the dollar. so remember it's all about perception and it's a currency war and you want to avoid the hyperinflationary chicken so you would have noted watching kaiser report when we interviewed chris cook recently he had just come back from taran where he said the price of chicken had doubled in a day and that was a warning sign he said and sure enough we see the iranian reale collapsing hyperinflationary currency collapse is leading to big anti regime protests in iran right so there you have it gold making new all time highs against the euro against the swiss franc currency collapse iranian rio people on the streets now going to the central bank so this is a global insurrection against banker occupation this is them manifesting itself on the streets of tehran and this is what occupy wall street is all about this what

the tea party is all about if they were honest with themselves this is what anyone who's against being completely shellacked a group of inside technocrats of banks hers is about get rid of these central bankers the protests were outside the central bank and they were calling for the governor of the central bank to stand down and anti-government slogans now one hundred angry traders and official money lenders gathered in front of around central bank they were chased away but it's interesting that they do focus outside the central bank which is the one that controls the value of the currency and one wonders when this collapses completely if it hasn't done it already it could be happening right now while we recording the show. you know whether or not in latin america when this happened when you saw. collapses the nation would perhaps like ecuador adopt the dollar the u.s. dollar so could we see a situation where they adopt the chinese room in be as their national currency for

example who knows when it collapses oh this is what currency wars are all about no bill black point talking to you in the second half of the show we've already been chatting about a plot we've got here we want to rent on the central bank there we were. we get that here in london against mervyn king this is what martin came to look like this when i got there oh one plucked chicken get the pluck out of here mervyn king you're destroying this country with their quantitative easing what is it all about sounds like a laxative get real mervyn king stop abusing the population here in the u.k. let the markets do it the markets will do so they don't need you interfering they don't need you printing money. ok and then finally max greece blocks thirty million for f one circuit speaking of central banking and central government crazy insanities crazy stuff and currency wars because of course this sort of insanity helps lower the value of the euro and everybody wants their currency

a little bit lower just not a lot lower like in the hyperinflationary. i think this one deserves the golden ticket in grab my chicken max according to the ministry of development the circuit will be built in an unpronounceable location near patricide in the hope that the country can host a formula one event sometime in the future well this is a perfect really breakdown of what's happening around the world greece is bankrupt it was invaded by a bank stars they priced their assets for pennies on the dollar they lowered a country out of debt they extracted the wealth they convert the people they stole all of them wage earning potential they strip mined all the income producing assets now that they've lost our sovereignty now that the people are basically no longer part of a democracy then the global mega banks elite are going to come in with formula one racing the minimum team or inquirers half a billion or

a billion dollars to be part of the formula next i'm sure they have the olympics back again soon and which is another global only freak show all the people there oh they're get jobs cleaning the toilets for that bernie ecclestone guy with a little glasses of the billionaire donors but don't ask him to get a real job with really come home. just the put this insanity into context the economy of greece contracted by six point two percent in the second quarter and in august the coalition government agreed fresh spending cuts of eleven billion euros to the society at large in order to get the next installment of one hundred thirty billion euros and you know they made those cuts and now germany and brussels are demanding even more before they'll release the next traunch well they're just a greek people lined up all the track of the formula one race in a row right over them that'll be part of the sport just one over a few thousand great people. if you were to wipe it all over your. face there with

thanks so much for being on the kaiser report thank you max in the hyperinflationary chicken thanks you but you can get a lot of airplay so i don't know all right stay tuned much more coming away got no black korea don't go away.

a second what were your thoughts when you heard that lenny brower the head of the criminal division of the department of justice was caught boasting of his love for deferred prosecution agreements i was appalled by you know used to help the prosecutions during the savings and loan days and i was a justice department lawyer as was my white. and let me brewer set out a road map on how people could of boy getting prosecuted there really white collar criminal banks that caused the financial crisis and the way he said to do it is hire yourself an economist and be really too big to fail and i mean that a lot of innocent workers are going to lose their jobs if you take any prosecution against start my criminal bank in other words you hold the workers hostage right holding the workers hostage in this case or holding the markets hostage we saw hank

paulson back in two thousand and eight give us three quarters of a trillion dollars or will blow up the market and you know this is this kicking the can down the road deferred accountability deferred prosecution does anything happen in real time anymore are is everything going to happen at some magical point the future some point of nirvana when things suddenly come back how is everything going to be deferred black i mean in the meantime what's happening for real wealth to deferred prosecution means non prosecution and everybody knows it means non-prosecution and the one exception prove the rule arthur andersen was offered a third. deferred prosecution agreement and refused it and went to trial and lost in the trial court you know so there's no more arthur andersen but the looks of the justice department learned from all of that is oh my god we can't

actually prosecute anybody large and so they don't actually don't prosecute large corporations anymore reisa proclaim that deferred prosecution agreements are adequate deterrence and that his agents were caught sophisticated and could detect whether a firm was serious about implementing a compliance programme so a lot of words there that are misused all the time like compliance program there is no compliance program and deterrence there are no to turns either other bill black well this is all about moving the deterrence this is all about allowing people to commit the crimes with absolute impunity and this was more than a wink wink nod nod now that your new digs in the city of london and we can go back to a classic comic routine of this is how you give me the excuse not to prosecute and it was wonderful brewer said now i want to warn you this

approach won't always work. right there is there is the risk now is it true that brewer comes from the same law firm as attorney general eric holder and if so is this a problem. yes they both come from coming to new burling they both come from representing many of the worst criminals white collar criminals in this action that firm was heavily involved in creating murders and your viewers may understand that this is the thing that screwed up mortgage records throughout the united states and has put tens of millions of people's ownership of their homes at potential risk so at that is a problem i must tell you back in the savings and loan days. i worked under a council who came from coming in and burling and was very top and was picked to be

very top but holder of the group were picked to be marshmallows and they delivered all right now lanny a brewer is also a member of the residential mortgage backed securities working group that has just filed a civil suit against j.p. morgan for mortgage fraud why a civil suit and not a criminal one bill block well and why a suit only against an entity that hasn't existed for war for years and why a suit not against the individuals who actually perpetrated the fraud and who are multimillionaires and in some cases billionaires and the answer in the answers are we don't do criminal cases of only financial institutions in the same that it lanny breuer speech and i have a column you know about this that perhaps you can put on your site. lanny breuer said tried to cite their great success against the bank fraud and he said hey we

brought an action against a criminal mastermind mr for oculus well that's hilarious this is the. only c.e.o. of a significant lender came from a mortgage bank not anything remotely like wall street and the new book by barofsky who was the special inspector general of the tarp program called sig tarp brodsky's book makes play that he had to fight crazy to get brewer to prosecute the case that all of brewer and holder's instincts were not to prosecute even as crude fraud for august who by due history fraud so crude it was discovered in two thousand was on. the right now i want to jump over to another area we recently saw the rigging of

global interest rate markets live bore the f s a new and they have a new group their financial conduct authority says they will in the future prosecute bankers involved in bringing libel or the overwhelming evidence including all of the e-mails suggest this was a. prosecutable racket why can't they prosecute the crime that has happened in real time right now. you used the word can has nothing to do with can can refers to ability this is a problem of will and the f.s.a. you can create a competition in laxity which is exactly what the f.s.a. deliberately did it competed with the securities and exchange commission in the united states and see if you see the commodity futures trading commission and course congress to cook it have the absolute weakest regulation if you look at

you're never going to have regulatory leaders with backbones and you're never going to have staffers who often have back both because why would you go to work for an entity that exists to serve the bags as opposed to serve the people good people will leave in those circumstances and so what you're seeing is the f.s.a. and by the way the bank of england continued to be the land of the invertebrates where if you have any backbone you're not allowed right while we are here in london we do the show in london because this race to the competition in laxity as you put it the race to the bottom who can be the absolute worst when it comes overseeing markets through london we had a i g lehman brothers bernie made up the london whale over j.p. morgan we learned about re hypothecation and. we're here in line in the part of the

there is a big conference going on for labor and the one on one the left wing party they already have the lib dems conference they're kind of like a schmoozy in between nobody knows what they do party and then of course they'll be the tory party with the current david cameron but none of the leaders on the local television address the fact that london is a cesspool of regulation that it won the competition to have the least biting regulatory framework and that's why. and many reasons the global economy and financial markets are in such disarray now if you're coming to london certainly what should we do should we go and find murmuring kang to record david cameron who what are we going to do dave black how we going to rectify this i know you're coming over here let's want to get up what do you what do you suggest well first let's think out that if you have a competition and laxity everybody loses everybody ins up with crappy

regulation and that's exactly what happened throughout the euro zone and in the united states the only way to win a competition in laxity is not to engage in the competition let me give you two specific examples from a conference i was at just last week in baltimore brooksley born one of the heroes who issued the famous warning about credit default swaps and got squashed by that bipartisan coalition of the clinton administration and alan greenspan and phil gramm said that as soon as the f.s.a. got created that leaders the senior leadership of the f.s.a. began coming to the united states to industry conferences and saying you should leave america and do your deals and locate relocate in the city of london because we will give you weaker regulation and then

a guy that have been with the securities and exchange commission for many many years said that's exactly what happened on initial public offerings i.p.o.'s that the city of london officials began coming to the united states to the trade meetings and say do your i.p.o.'s in the city of london instead of wall street because we will. look the other way while you do this and so i'd only make what might are you know thinking about your point of course the labor party finance issues is not a party that is remotely of the left it is was a party of what would be an us terms the extreme right the lib dems were every bit as bad as the conservatives of anything are worse and so there has been no choice

in the united kingdom for over a decade if you actually did to vote for someone who was really going to regulate so that's your have to change one of these parties has to be changed into a party that represents the people of great britain or united kingdom or england whichever you know variant you have in mind at the time instead of representing the huge financial institutions because you've just seen what happens to a nation that wins a competition and laxity it loses its moral soul and it has repeated financial crises because what it will attract act is the worst pod scum throughout the world and it will have regulatory leaders who will stand by while the part of sky destroyed the nation on her a well rounded time bill black thanks so much for being on the kaiser report thank
